A Smile Gives You Shivers, Still

by Lynne G. Schwalbe

Lynne G. Schwalbe, a California poet and member of the McGroarty Chapter of California Federation of Chaparral Poets, Inc., has absorbed her poet father's talents and brought them into the 21st century. Her poetry in this book is based on family relations and insights, and she is not afraid to reveal her own imperfections or her pride. Husband, children, pets, insights, activities-a normal, sometimes whimsical discovery of life and its hope and its confusions-make for good poetry that is a pleasure to read. Adding this book to your own shelves will enrich you.-Ursula T. Gibson, Poetry Editor, Poetic Voices
